The response of coral skeletal nano structure and hardness to ocean acidification conditions
Ocean acidification typically reduces coral calcification rates and can fundamentally alter skeletal morphology. We use atomic force microscopy (AFM) and microindentation to determine how seawater pCO(2) affects skeletal structure and Vickers hardness in a Porites lutea coral. At 400 µatm, the skele...
